Growing up, AndyMan and I were a couple of the many, many children who had a "Magic 8-Ball". Ask the 8-Ball a question ("Does Andy like to eat poo?"). Shake the globe. Turn it upside down. Gaze at the answer. You'd occasionally get a "yes" or "no", but the odds were better that you'd get an "ask again later" or something like that. Through advances in technology, American children (and not a few goofy adults) no longer have to rely on kinetic energy and a polygon suspended in inky water to find the answers to life's mysteries: we now have Yoda to tell us. Ask him a question ("Is Andy the biggest wussy in the Southeastern United States?"), squeeze his hand, and- viola!- Yoda announces the answer ("Difficult question, you ask. Ask again later"). Okay, the answers still stink, but who can resist that keen Yoda wit?

Oh that is so cool. I need one for the office!
Need or need not. Need only the force, you do.
Throw papa down the stairs, his hat.
Hey, blame Yoda for the misplaced modifiers.
